Our Collective Impact

±¬ÁÏ¹Ï women are subtle thinkers and bold visionaries; they are mavericks, originals, and firsts.

Anassa Kata!

You donated $301,884,913 to the Defy Expectation Campaign, smashing through our minimum goal of $250 million.

  

The collective support of donors and the successful impact of the 10-year Defy Expectation Campaign that ended in 2021 have enabled the College to:

  • establish over 100 new endowed scholarships;
  • continue to meet 100% financial aid for undergraduate students’ demonstrated need; and
  • work to decrease the need for loans to attend ±¬ÁϹÏ, including no longer using loans to meet need for students with a total family income of less than $110,000, as well as increasing aid for all need-eligible students.

With your help, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï will continue to transform lives, societies, and the world. Learn more about the impact you have had by watching the videos below.

Our Priorities

For Linda Friedrich '89, it's because ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï taught her to make connections across divides.

I was compelled by a classmate to make my first stretch gift to ±¬ÁϹÏ, because I understood the importance of supporting the College that shaped who I am...

Severa von Wentzel '95 tells us why ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï is a focus of her time and philanthropy

During the itinerant fluidity of my twenties, I benefited from the meaningful downstream effects of my ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï education and its reputation when applying to graduate schools and for jobs.
